Liverpool will be effectively starting all over again when the new season kicks off on August 21.
Manager Arne Slot was removed from his post one season after winning the Premier League title, with Andoni Iraola named his replacement. Other big names headed towards the exit as well, none bigger than Mohamed Salah.
The Egyptian star is a free agent after ending a hugely successful nine-year stint at Anfield. He was at the front and centre of Liverpool's plans for all these years. But they will now have to plan for life without Salah. And also Andy Robertson and Ibrahima Konate.
New coach Iraola admitted there are “obvious” gaps in the team that need to be filled. Liverpool have signed Jeremy Jacquet and Victor Munoz but will need further reinforcements with injuries to Hugo Ekitike, Conor Bradley and now Jeremie Frimpong.
The Reds will need to make some big investments, even though they have the third highest wage bill in the Premier League.
